BESR email notifications
Updated: 21 May 2010 | 2 comments
This issue has been solved. See solution.
Is there a way to send notifications via email regarding the status of the backups along with a few details about it, like the time it took to complete?
I am considering doing away with Backup Exec 12 but within this new application (Server Edition) I fail to see basic reporting capabilities, is the management portion of the software required to achieve the aforementioned tasks?
Thanks

When you open the
When you open the BESR console, click on TASKS > OPTIONS. Then click on NOTIFICATIONS. This is where you can configure this. If you want more robust reporting, the BESR Manager does allows more reporting through reports and GUI. You can download that and evaluate it from the Symantec website to test.

Thank you Andreas, that is
Thank you Andreas, that is what I feared, I will have to make do with high priority notifications since the Manager bit will be overkill for one system.
I have noticed the information I need is displayed under backup history details and I was wondering if I could parse a file other than the actual .v2i or .iv2i to obtain it. I have looked under "%allusersprofile%\Application Data\Symantec\Backup Exec System Recovery\" folders without much success. The parsing and emailing processes would be triggered by a command file.
Thnaks again,
Would you like to reply?
